Have you heard the news? The Donders Brain Museum is being taken over by a gang of scientists! On Saturday 4th October, you can go on safari and discover more about your senses, language, art, and DNA.

  • Look at my DNA! – make your own DNA visible.
  • Cha cha cha and tea? – what do these two have in common?
  • Will you fall for it? – trick your own senses.
  • What does a seal say? – how do seals learn language?
  • Chatting with a robot – the robot named Furhat wants to talk to you.
  • Try to copy me – can you build a piece of art together without seeing each other?
  • And much more…

The activities are designed for families with children between the ages of 4 and 14. You’ll find more information about all the activities and suitable age ranges on our website.
